Session Description
Every year, hundreds of Houston Independent School District students are sidelined by illness and other conditions that make conventional schooling impossible. Our traditional way of serving these students was costing us dearly without producing quality educational results. In 2010, we decided to try a virtual learning approach to ensure comprehensive & compassionate education while students heal. Come hear about our online homebound/in-treatment program â€" and where we hope to go from here.
